Japanese food: high-quality ingredients, mediocre cooking
Chinese food: mediocre ingredients, masterful cooking
All other Asian food: mediocre ingredients, mediocre cooking
Japanese food: high-quality ingredients, mediocre cooking. Chinese food: mediocre ingredients, masterful cooking
you are the reason why people bash Japanese food here, even though it's kinda decent on its own.
Bullshit.
No, it's because there's a pretense that it is somehow shat out by crying angels as solid bars of culinary gold because muh tentacle anime addiction. Also, the Japanese have their heads so far up their own arse it's really quite tedious to deal with any of their shit.
Wrong. Hyperbole only makes you seem Japan obsessed.
Dude, I'm Hungarian. Please stfu about Japanese cooking. I said it's fine, but it's the food equivalent of a Stephen Seagal movie. Mostly bullshitfu.
Anyway, Asian cooking gets way better than that, or indeed OP. Peking imperial recipes are fucking insane in their preparation, but you rarely see it in the west. The banquet presentations are basically food paintings. Totally different to Cantonese, which is what most people usually associate with Chinese food.
A lot of those high quality Japanese ingredients take a master to prepare. In a very strict sense of the word it is still cooking.
I also think that your argument or opinion or whatever lacks enough context.
Live baby rats dipped in soy sauce is not masterful cooking. Egg drop soup is not masterful cooking either. I will say that using a wok does take some skill.
bullshit innit
What a crock of shit. Japanese food is good, but too many westerners sniff their own farts over it, the same way they do about Japanese art and architecture. It's just masturbatory culinary Japonisme.
Okay but how do they make the weiners look like octopus
Cut in half and then in star shape lines? *
Wrong.
Sounds like you've never actually had any top quality ingredients from Japan.
>A lot of those high quality Japanese ingredients take a master to prepare
Anon, the reason Japanese swords were folded and worked so many times is because the quality of the iron in Japan was dogshit. The same applies to food. They had to put a ton of effort into presentation and autistic detail because they were working with awful quality everything for the longest time. Western countries never suffered from this problem.
I know. You are proving my point.
>Western countries never suffered from this problem.
Have you ever read The Jungle by Upton Sinclair?
That story taught me that the USA had awful quality everything for the longest time, and that communism is the answer to all of our problems.
The jungle is yellow journalism and was exaggerated for emotional impact.

>already precisely sauced
What is the sauce on sashimi? I never got the impression it was seasoned at all
Who's supposed to be in the wrong here?
The writers for making you watch such cringe content
Both
Horrible take by a pleb thanks
>Rice with chicken, China
:I
>Rice with chicken, Japan
:OOOOOOOO
It never stops being funny how every time it's brought up that maybe Japanese food isn't the pinnacle of Asian cuisine all of these anime poisoned retards immediately come out of the woodwork.
this looks so fucking Hispanicy
dont chinkoids understand they dont have to do this to themselves anymore? food safety has improved so much
It's all dried mild chillies, heat level is Serrano at the most. La Zi Ji is more about the smokeyness than the heat
yeah chinese food never actually gets that hot
Me? I prefer Indonesian food (and pussy).
ah I see, a fellow man of taste
Japs are honorary whites. All other Asians are jealous seethe lords.
being white isn't a marker of excellence when it comes to food. all non-bland cuisines are somewhat southern
>chinese cooking: drown everything in aromatic seed oils
oooooh mastelful cooking!
Why yes drowning everything in aromatic seed oils, and for that matter, salt, MSG, cooking wine, hot chili pepper, and Hispanices is good cooking. It's funny because I barely hear about actual bad cooking in China, even though I know it exists. An example I've seen is this dish called "bang bang chicken" I saw on wikipedia, which is a boiled chicken dish. It might still taste good because of the sauce, but boiling chicken is something I only ever heard about white w*men doing.
Shit I forgot the same page shows this version with no sauce and with a salad instead. Now this looks like diet-conscious white hoe, whore, dime-a-dozen jezebel food
go fuck yourself the meat is boiled with ginger and spring onion to give flavor like white cut chicken 白切雞 and the bang bang sauce is actual crack
Really? It's good? Why not just do the same thing but fry the chicken?
>bang bang chicken"
its not boiling in hot water, its flavored and shit.
>Chinese food: mediocre ingredients
High quality foodstuffs for nobility exist.
High class Chinese food are all fraud just like Michelin star French restaurants. I will never try that shitty steam fish which cost me 160 dollars again. Taiwan pork chop house is a hundred times better than those pretentious fuckers
Ever tried the new year's braised pork hock?
>new year's braised pork hock
Is it good? Haven’t tried it before
>steam fish
>160 dollars
Where did you eat? In a restaurant in Shanghai?
viet food is basically chinese food thoughever
Vietnamese food is just a bland and boring version of Chinese food, with some French influences. It doesn't have the amount of Hispanice/flavouring that Chinese food has, and doesn't have the variety of Hispanices/flavouring Chinese food has, most often relying on basic flavours like salty water. Even BBH, the pinnacle of Vietnamese food, pales in comparison to your typical Lamian. And, to get a real BBH, it costs double the cost of your average Lamian. (Most restaurant's BBH's are fake, just pho with some extra Hispanices.) Chinese food requires a harmony between the ingredients that truly only a master can provide: it is the only cuisine (or rather collection of cuisines) that I haven't been able to replicate at home.
IMO the only vietnamese food worth getting is Banh Mi, but that's only because of how cheap it is.
>it is the only cuisine (or rather collection of cuisines) that I haven't been able to replicate at home.
not enough gutter oil in the local sewerage, duh
>Even BBH, the pinnacle of Vietnamese food
is it really, though?
yeah, chinese people can really grill the hell out of those rocks and ice cubes
give me an example of mediocre cooking versus masterful cooking.
>Cooking
:I
>Cooking, Japan
:OOOO masterful!!!
>add Hispanices to oil
>throw rocks in
mastelful
Why do you retards have this impulse to use video game balancing logic to real life things, it doesn't work like that and the OP is nonsense
It's probably a bot post harvesting opinions for AI
Chinese food: mediocre ingredients, masterful cooking
gutter oil and live rodents are mediocre?
you're joking, most south asian food mog japanese flavor
desu, i doubt many here can afford to eat real chinese food. its like 30 dollars per dish and you go with a group and get a few dishes. thats like basic chinese dinner dining. is it super good? meh, its okay for every day eating. but thats the more authentic chinese food experience. Obviously theres the quick lunch options which are good too.
Wang Gang said the stirfried pork sliver dish costing 40RMB (~$6) was a bit pricey, so where the fuck are you getting this $30 dish that's not braised abalone or budhha jumps over the wall? even top-tier premium yangzhouchaofan costs like 15-25 dollars
that said
Chinese Cooking > rest of Asia
and fuck OP for zer low effort bait
I find a lot of Japanese foods tend to be sweet, they overuse sugar too much with the ingredients. Cantonese food will always be my favorite though
>Fried Chicken
😐
>Fried Chicken, Korea
<:O
K(orean)FC is the only Korean food that isn't inedible, so give them a break. Let them have this one.
that looks like the perfect meal to blow out the gender neutral bathrooms at starbucks
